A. Di..,cal.nuEro government clerk last
SepteMbq asked Chairman Jewel to
send .him to Indiana to spot Democratic
repeaters. fir. Jewell did so; 'giving him
a cheek for, $lOO. The er4lerk,raised it
to $l,OOO and4ook it to Barnum, said he
had beeri hired by Jewell to take Iteimb
lean repeaters to Indiana, and offlred - to
turn the repeaters over to the Democrats
for a consideration. Barnuni gave hitn a

tographer named Bolas, containing gela
tine plates already in position, and a lens
that is alwaysin focus for any distance
from twenty to thirty feet. It _may be

it touches the ground a bulb is squeezed
and the exposure is made.
A _Nnw. YORK engineer thinks the rack
et of the elevated railroad: trains ,cen be
turned to music by using the AIR=
harp principle. Says he : "You know a
train in running along - a track makes a
vacuum- underubath it. Then the air
•,.
rushing in makes the rumbling noise you
hear: Now, my idea is to turn that noise
into music. ,You — may make a melodeon
harP.of wires and hitch it on p.the front
and rear of trains. . The 'toe" rushing
through makesit . play. Excursion par
ties would need no band. then. They
• could ride up and down and have, all the
Music they — want. • working at it.
tou'll hear of it some day."
A FEW days ago a letter was mailed in
New Orleans, addressed as follows :
"Swift as the train pursue your way,
Stop not for flag nor banner,
Until you reach Miss Sophie Stay,
In Clinton, Louisiana,`•
Ilati-roads and weather made this sweet
s missive miscarry, anti ;when it 'was set
_right apin,by the postmaster at Port
Hudson, ho wrote on it : _
Go on :goon : Yott must not stay :
Since mall facilities are great ;
- Brut hen yon reach Miss Sophie May. .
• Xou'll only be fire days too late."
Probably the whole letter was Written
in the same strain. But General Garfield
has his eye on that Port Hudson postmas
ter, who had better "beware the ides of
31a,reh."
~ ONE of the.best instances . of the value
of keepin' your mouth shut on general
principles occurred lately in the Kentucky
Penitentiary. Sam Holmes was in for a
murder, and his health beeame very bad.
• Lucien Young, an ex-iictoolmate, exerted
limself to get a pardon for Holmes, and
the Governor granted it. Young visited
Holmes iu the penitentiary, with the doc
:— ument in his pocket, but said nothfiig
about it, going into a letigthy talk about
old times, etc. At last he said : "Sam,
if you were turned loose arid fully par- .
cloned, what would be the first thing you
• would do?" The convict very quickly re
sponded : . 4 ‘ I would go to Lancaster, and
kill - Judge Owsley and another scoundrel
who was a witifss against me." Young
turned away without delivering the par
don, said nothing more, and tore the pa
per to pieee a when he got outside.
Titt: real life counterpart of Tittlebat
Titmouse, in Warren's novel of
"Ten Thousand a Year," has been found
in Washington. Tittlebat's hair was
about the color of Central Jersey sand,
and to dye it black he got some stuff that.
made:it bright green one day and perfect
ly white the next. The Washington vie
tim of some such all:ged hair dye was a
white-haired old clerk in the Post-office,
Department. Ile had a formula accord- .
Mete which be hid the liquid put up by
a drug clerk, and in an hour his hair and
beard were a beautiful black. lie .was de
lighted.' The nest day he was delighted
on the other sidelpf his face.' When he
awoke and lookeki at his hair in the morn-•
ing it had aleautiful carmine hue. He
called on that drug clerk;
,and wanted to
kill him fur playing a trick on him. The
clerk sent Lim to a barber's shop, where
he cared things with nitrate of silver.
Then be used the hair-dye for re 4 ink,
•
and took the• bottle to. the department
with him for every-day use. Other clerks
liked the color of the ink,• and learning
that the formula was taluable, he sold it
to a New York ink Manufacturer for #2,-
00, for whom it has made fame and for
. • tune.
THE Chicago Inter-Omni has heard of
a plan for:obviating the objections urged
against tfieZundergiound cable system of
running street, cars now used in San Fran
cisco and extensively agitated in Chicago,
where it is opposed on the ground that it
cannot tern corners. It is proposed to
build an elevated railroad track eighteen
feet - above the street level and to run a
truck on it. Suspended by metal railing
from the truck, so as to be only a foot
and a-half from the ground, is the passen
ger car proper.. The colunins sustaining
the track are to have cushion insulators
and the track wheels to be 'on papier
mache, so the running will be 'noiseless.
The track is to be endless and so is the
cable, running through a groove on the
- s top of the truck. The groove can be
tigh'tened or loosened at will by means of
a cord running down into the car and con
trolled by the engineer. If where thAn-
ble has been released the truck- and car
hould have too great a momentum, mid
be inclined to run on, the engineer can
apply a brake and stop the . revolution of
the truck wheels, stopping the car
in
statitly. In turning the rounded 'corners
at either end of the endless - track, the ca
ble disconnects at the corner, and the car
r can either be giien sufficient impetus be
fore the disconnection to send it around
the bend (to 'a point where it connects
itself again), or can be turned by hand or
cn a turntable. • _ -

' , TtiePrjricipl,es of Pruning.
Fbe art of [inning is one of the
simplest as well as one of the most
important operstions tonnecti3il with
horticulture. Yet It is one that is
frequently neglected • or . ill-perform
ed. The principal objects of pruning
are to induce- vjgorous - and Bra ,
metrical growth, remove superfluous
wood, and promote fruitfulness.
Whatever be tbe form of training
fidopted, there are some generar-prin
piples underlying all pruning orera,
tions WhielLshould be • observed to
some extent, though no precise rule
can be giVen for all cases. Briefly
stated, these principlei aro: When
the growth of wood is large and the
tree' or vine vigorous, more mood
I should generally be cut ,away than
whte the tendency to the production
,of wood is small. When there is
great tendency to the "production of
both wood and fruit, pruning of the
wood and thinning of the fruit, or
'both, may be necessary in order to
proiuce the best specimens. Shv
bearing in trees is sometimes treated
with rootpruning. When an upright
growth is desired, pruning of the lat
erat'growtli is required, and when a
rounded, bush jgrowth . is wanted, the
main or centri4 stem and longest lat
erals should be shortened in.
To prune successfully requires
taste and good judgment, and much
beauty and utility can be given to
the'form of a tree by proper pruning;
butatoq much or unskillful pruning
may be done with scarcely less inju
lions results than those that follow
the neglect of the operation. Prun
ing at the wrong season, the removal•
of very large bran Ches, and the neg
lect to prune, are responsible cause:.
for the irregular-headed and unshape-
IyArees which are found, in far too
many orchards.
In order to have well-shaped heads
on trees, pruning,and training should
be commenced 'when the trees are
quite young. Many trees are train
ed with too low beads, which much
interefere with the' work of cultivat
ing an orchard. In garden culture,
or for ornamental speeimen trees on
the lawn, low-headed, luirizontally
branched trees are sometimes desire-
(MEIN()
ble ; but for orchaid - culture the
heads should be high enough to al
loW a convenient approach in culti
vating. Removing large limbs from
trees. is-a practice much to be depre
ciated; but whedei•er necessary it
should be done very carefully, and at
the proper season, so that the wound
Will heal rapidly and the tree suffer
the least loss of sap. The removal•
of large limbs also causes an unsight
ly trunk, making it rough,• harder to
clean and a more. secure harbor for
insects, moss, etc. •
When superfluous roots or branch
es are removed in their incipient
stages of growth, no such effects are
produced. Summer,pruining, or more
Iproperly nipping of the shoots as
they grow, can often be employed to
advantage,, and whenever it can be it
is far preferable to pruning when the
wood is dormant. This method of
pruning, if begun in . season while the,
tree is young,, will cause even and
symmetrical growth, which cannot
be so well attained_ when all the
prunin g is done when the wood is
dormapt. Spring-set . trees are 'gen
erally in need of thinning_ out of su
perfluous branches, shoots and. buds
of the'same seasons's growth, .which
'can be done better early in the sea
son than when the wood. becomes
dormant. , Blackberry and raspberry
bushes can be rendered much more
shapely, and of more substantial
'growth,g by nipping in . the 'canes
:when about ttree . .feet - high,, than <by
allowing them to Spindle' up ;. in
which, condition they'.are not us well
fitted to ,carry a crop -of fruit; or
withstand severe bold or storms:-- - -
I \Examiner and Chronicle.
Preparing and Seeding Ground
The practice of sowing grass and
clover alone without ..any so-called
foster crop is' becoming general. It
is found that the supposed nursing
crop has quite a different effect - from
fostering-or encouraging the tender
grass, but chiefly robs and destroys
it, unless the soil Is unusually riz.h.
The more successful practice is to
prepare the soil by thorough plow
ingLrolling if necessary, and har
rowing so,as to pro...ure a fine tilth,
and sow the seed early in the spring,
without any accornpaayina crop.
The preparation.of the soir in the
spring is completed by a dressing of
fine manure, and a thorough harrow
ing, a shallow, plowing be given if
necessary. Harrowina will be suffi
cient in the majority o f b cases. After
a fine harrWitfa the seed is sown. A
mixture w il l be. found most .satisfac
tory. --Xixed crops, as a rule, yield
in proportion to the increase of seed.
Thus ausual seeding of timothy or
clover, 'or both, will give , a certain
quantityof hay ; if orchard-g rass is
added, a , crop of hay .will be taken
equal in amount to that expected
frprn the timothy or .Clover, but two
or three • weeks earlier. A second
crop may be taken later, — of which
the timothy will furnish the bulk,
and the'orchard-grass will fill up the
bottom. If Kentucky blue grass is
added, Or Rhode Island bent, a later
crop will be. given, which can be
I mowed or rower, or will give the
best of fall pasture without injury to
the roots of the timothy or orchard
grass. .The mixture here indicated
is one that may be suggested for tri
al. It has been tried and found suc
cessful and desirable in all cases, and
deserves a more extended applica
tion. The seed has been sown in the
follow %,a o . oportions; One bushel
of orehicrkgrass one-half bushel of
Rhode !staid bent, ten pounds of
thriothy, and six pounds of red clo
ver, The blue grass appears- later
than the °pliers, and fi lls up the va
cant spaceb left by the falling clover, '
which 4:sappears a ft er the second '
...- a _ - he advantage of the mixture
is chiefly that a fine thick bottom is
produced, which covers and protects
the ground between the stools of the
coarser grasses and which furnishes
a second crop f l opliiy and a third for
pasture.. For soiling purposes the
mixed .seeding is Even more useful
than for pasturage, as the grass may
be Cut at any season without danger
of injury from a dry spell. These
particulars are more. pertinent for the
spring than the present season, yet
for Meadows-
if one would avail himself of them
he must make , preparation now, and
not delay,—Americalt Agrieuildriit.
Deep or Shallow Setting of Milk
Some four or five yeais since, at a
meeting of the then Ohio' Dairymen's
AssWation, an apparatus was shown
'for the deep setting
,of milk, which,
at the time excited midi . comment
from the dairymen,' some of whom
were sanguine that the whole system
of batter =thing was destined to un
deig46 Cassige, and the tin pan of
the try "must go: 2 '
Sit* that time there has been a
constantand persistent controversy
going on between the Advocates of
deep and shallow setting of milk.
From the one *patent more than a
score have been brought out, all pos
sessing merits, bat only in fact vari
ations of the one idea..
For a time it seemed that the shat.
low panadvocateA were doomed to
be routed ; but the inventions of a
large shallow pan, let into the side
of a box just like a bureau drawer,
and subjected to the influence of ;a
descending current of air, cooled
with Ice,vaused a revival of the shal
low theory, and together with the
advent of the cetrifugal, VIICUI3I cream
extractor, Vairlamb system, and oth
ers, the contests have become almost
even, with equal results for all. In
one the old open pan excels them all,
unless it be that the bureau creamery
has this merit. The cream of the
shallow pan is more solid, of a deep
er richer color, and has a more but
tery look than any of the deep or
submerged systems. rut to a series
of tests, extending through a year,
there was no advantage,
.gained by
either method. Harry Lewis asserts
that his preference is for_ the time.
honored tin pan; its results have
proved more satisfactory, while Hen
ry Stewart says' it simply resolves
Itself into the question of conveni
ence;and any system of set,ting.milk;
all'if the ordinary piecautions are
taken, will give the same results.
The subject then With the farmer
is how best to attain thete • results;
If buildings have to be erected, an.
entire equipment of pans, etc.,
bought, spring house's put in repair,
and a. long list' of expenses incurred
to' enable the operator to make a.
prime,artielerof butter, then a cream
ery with theileep pans had best be
purchase,cl; but if all the utensils arc
at hand, then dairy , house free from
odors,-and so 'arranged that. its at
mospteric conditions can be controll
ed the old-fashioned way, May be
continued, but only with, the view of
excelling in the quality of batter pro
duced. ,
One. point is worth considering.
Make as few changes as possible.
Whatever apparatus is decided upon,
ktep it •land - f master its details,
for
like anyrmichinery, its use must be
continued with perseverance to in
sure success,- and. as a person become:3
familiar with , a certain way, their
chances, of excelling will be greatly
increased. Fjequent changes in
methods and apparatus must hinder
perfection, besides causing perplex
ing antioyance.—Cleveland Herald.

Winter aof Stock.
The ime,of the yearhas num come
for every- farmer to= take into full
consideration the advantages of pro
viding good suitable shelter' for all
the livo stOck he may have' about
him to caredfor during the
cut winter: It is a difficult . matter
to calcOlate just the amount of
that may .be, suffered in keeping
given number of ,either 'cattle, hogs
or sheep through a winter season in
our climate without proper shelter,
'as much will depend on the kind of
weather we may have during the win
ter,tut there is no doubt but that
there is more or less in all cases of
the kind.— Alternate . freezing and ,
thawing; with a mixture Of rain, sleet ,
and snoW, makes the worst kind .of
meather'for live stock to suffer expO
sure in, and there is hardly any kind,
of stock that can be expectedtohold
Its own in weight,and condition with
all the 'feed. that may be given, where
it is fully exposed to such weather

are satiSfied that therels -no invest
